As someone else commented, freezing is a huge concern of mine. It's the only thing holding me back from installing this type of system. I live in New England. By the way, the sump box made of concrete and the quality of the other hardware seems much higher than that used in other videos I've seen. It would be great to have a more detailed video from start to finish. Thanks. (I see 13 comments here with questions but 0 replies. ) Answers and some feedback would be very helpful.)
What we want to see is where is the outfall & termination
I'm in Western Massachusetts so winters get temps that are well below freezing for extended periods of time. I asked a friend in N.H. who is in the construction business doing mostly excavation, site prep, drainage systems etc. what he thought: "At that shallow depth it would surely freeze up here. But, in Cranford, New Jersey, where this was filmed, that system obviously survives. A pump system is used on occasion for Septic Systems in our area, but septic doesn't freeze at the same temperatures as water. The pipes in the system in this video would have to be installed BELOW your area frost line. Up here I have seen frost at 84" and that is not unusual." Well, that answer makes me realize that despite this looking so well engineered, I'm going to have to look at other options.
I have a 2.5 deep pit in my driveway that captures both surface water and water from under house foundation. It very rarely freezes. The Temps it freezes at also mean rain would be impossible. I live in Central Massachusetts
This is EXACTLY what I need. Thanks.
i love the way you capped off the trench over the fabric with more gravel. I've seen so many guys put the lawn back over the gravel with nothing but the fabricate below it. I'll bet good money the patched in section of lawn remains anemic because there is not enough soil to retain moisture. And your gravel is a beautiful dry river bed look and border. Not only that, surface water has a clear patch to the drain system. AND you used perforated PVC pipe instead of the flexible stuff which, in my thinking, collected dirt in the grooves and isn't strong enough to be snaked if needed. Well done. Next go around, film your project from beginning to end to show your viewers the CORRECT way to install a french drain with pump. Thanks, nice job!!
Love the work...where could you explain what pump and grate you used on the catch basin?
Great video sir. This is EXACTLY what I want to do. What size pump? Brand? Who do you winterize it? Please sir, this is what I need and I can use the information.
Pretty nice! would have been nice to see the construction of this!
Thanks Chris, I'll shoot & post another video
What is your location? I am in Pennsylvania and want to install one of these, but am concerned with it freezing in the winter.
What kind of pump did you use for this system?
Well done! Thanks for sharing!
Where does one get such a nice cement sump solution?
Where does the water pump to?
That is my question.
looks nice. but what if the water freezes. wont it damage the pump or pipe?
Exactly my concern!

They make a pump heater you can use, but that won't resolve the freezing pipe issue.
Great video
Good work👌👍
That check valve should be vertical
Hi, what's the size of the patio, the gph flow of the pump and the presipitation in your state,
how much for something like this?
The stone is what will cost you
Not sure why you used a 2" pipe for the output, residential pumps only have an inch and a half output.
The water gets out faster through a 2" pipe than a 1.5"/
@@americarocks1776 No, it'll move slower. Less pressure.
@@joeshmoe7789 a slightly larger pipe is recommended too long runs. And it reduced pipe friction which will benefit you with longer runs, putting less strain on your pump.
@@americarocks1776 Who recommends using a larger pipe? The inside walls of the pipe is all that allows the pump to build pressure. The pump is normally used to send water up or uphill. Lowering the pressure reduces the distance the water will go under pressure. After the pump shuts off, there will be more water in the 2" pipe to flow back into the pit or remain in the pipe to freeze. The less strain on the pump is a 100% nonissue, it has no effect on it. Who recommends using a larger pipe?
Nice work 👍🏼
How much??
looks like at least $8k worth of work
